MORGANTOWN — As the city awaits word on a critical hurdle in the ongoing effort to land a runway extension for one of the state’s busiest airports, members of the Runway Extension Development (RED) team are asking stakeholders to renew their declarations of support for the project.

During the Dec. 6 regular meeting, the Monongalia County Commission did just that, approving a letter affirming the body’s support as a partner of the city.

The commission’s vote came hours after Morgantown City Manager Paul Brake requested and received clearance to pen a similar letter on behalf of city council.
